Another movie?

Doesn't look like it'll coming soon.

Then, how about we watch

Domestic movie we picked before?

Please, I want to watch

Western movie with captions.

You're okay with any movies

as long as have captions on?

Yes.

Thank you for today.

Well, I did pushed you

to come to meet.

I think we should

call it a day.

Well, I guess so.

Uhm.

Forgive me.

Actually, I...

It's coming.

The elevator is overweight.

The elevator is overweight.

The elevator is overweight.

The elevator is overweight.

What the hell.

Normally, the last person

enter should get off, right?!

How dense she can be?

Please forgive our rudeness.

Come here a sec.

Why'd you look away without

noticing people around you?

You only care of yourself?!

You overflowed with feelings

when you were in virtual world.

But in the real world

you're a self-centered girl.

You really are a let down.

I didn't really think that

you're look-up-to-respect woman.

If I had known that,

I wouldn't have invited you to meet!

The elevator was overweight, wasn't it?

Maybe if we met just once...

I thought you wouldn't

even notice that I was using this.

I can tell that you were perplexed,

got irritated when we were together.

But, I'm happy I could met with you.

It's sad it ended like this...

But there were moments I could be a normal girl

who was dating just like normal couples.

If you hate me because

of what happened today...

I'll be still happy if we keep

continue contacting to each others.

I...

being able to exchanging

messages with you...

I really enjoyed

every seconds of it.

It was very special to me.

What happened? You spaced out.

It's nothing.

Really? It's good then.

Rika, you can talk to us.

Do I have to tell everything

about anything to you two?

We are worried about you.

- I'm 25 years old you know!

- Even if you're 25...!

Stop it, dad.

How long you're gonna keep this?

- I'm not kid anymore.

- Rika, you too.

You can't keep

treating me like a child.

Just because I have

my ears' problem to deal with!

Maybe I should live by myself.

Living by yourself? Don't joke around!

What if something happens to you?!

What if something happens?!

My life's devoid of anything!

Rika, what do you

say after eating?

Thanks for the food.

I'm sorry, I made you feel bad.

I hurt you.

I absolutely didn't realize it.

I simply thought you were odd girl.

However I never thought you

have a problem with your ears.

But you wanted to tell me.

You were wondering if I knew,

I'd choose my words carefully.

Afraid I'd changed my attitude

if I knew you are PwD.

PwD - Persons with Disabilities

Or else, what if I the guy who'd

run away upon hearing your condition.

You must be overwhelmed.

Things about losing hearing...

there's a lot of dangerous things

you need to careful at, right?

I wanted to be there when it's necessary,

and let me worry about things you need.

Because you're the girl I like.

I hope I get one more chance

to thread our relationship.

PS :
yes, things ended badly.

But one thing I happy about is

when you called me by name "Shin".

You wrote you "like" me.

Why must you used

that word now?

I...

This is Murakawa who will

work in our department.

I hope your guidance.

Her name is Hitomi.

She has hearing impairment,

please communicate with her verbally.

I hope your guidance.

Your chair is there.

Is there any problems with

Fujimine High School travelling plan's document lists?

We have our hands full, you know.

Things that can be conveyed orally,

the hell you must write it down?

Who's in the charge of Shida's contract list?

3 years ago

Yes, it's already done.

Where is Nanami High School's flight plan?

I've had enough!

Is that the list?

Yes it is.

Thanks.

What's wrong with her?

I have difficulty in hearing

high pitch sound.

But I can hear

low sound with ease.

Good day.

It's hard listening to woman's voice.

But it's easy to listen to man's voice.

That's a good excuse!

Don't use your condition

as pretext for your convenience.

Pssst.

She can hear you.

- Well, she can't, eh?

- No problem right?

In the end, she gives special

treatments only to certain people.

There's a revision on one-stop flight.

Ah, is that so?

Thank you for tried to

bring yourself to mend things up.

It was really tenderly kind of you.

I didn't think there's a person like you

trying to understands my condition.

Such is extremely

good things a person has.

That's from normal

people point of view.

I bet there's an emoji

"sympathy" written on your face.

"Ah, glad I'm still perfect"

You must be appease with satisfaction

knowing you're still normal.

That's what kind

of honest person I am.

You couldn't possible know my feeling,

how I wanted you see me as a normal girl.

You people, with normal hearing,

without a sense of inferiority...

are living in different world than me.

Thank you for everything.

I wish we shouldn't have met.

But I'm glad for our encounter.

Hitomi-san, you said normal

hearing people can't understand it.

That's one-sided opinion.

Please don't say that I'm a person

who likes to sympathize others.

Once when I went to drink

party of my company, a girl asked...

"please say word 'like' in kansai"

I refused her right off the bat.

I know I could just

refused her nicely.

It's because a word

I only say to person I like.

I was surprised by what you said

and surely I'm entitled asking for your forgiveness.

But I'm gonna to let your

reckless remark off of me.

Instead, I'm worry about you.

While you hurt me by sent those messages...

you also hurt yourself.

You must be crying while at it, right?

But, I'm a mere human after all.

I have annoying parts as well.

We're just quarrelling, right?

This is our first quarrel.

That's why we'd better quarrel

properly in order to reconciling.

We're targeting for revenge date!

You can relax without

worrying your hearing condition.

I'll also start learning

about your condition.

And, I'm not the person

you suspicious of.

I'm sorry for couldn't

be more convincing.

This is my excuse for today.

Say, it's not a bad idea to thread

our relationship again, right?

How to communicate with people with hearing impairment

Hitomi-san, is your

case moderate hearing loss?

In what stage are you?

Yours is not total deafness, is it?

Is it conductive hearing loss?

Or sensorial hearing loss?

Amazing!

You've researched a lot.

I said that I would right?

My sense of hearing is

still can hear low-range frequency.

I'm in category Sensorineural Hearing Loss.

When I was in first year of high school,

my family went to mountain climbing.

It was avalanche accident.

So I was admitted to hospital.

Honey, they're so funny!

This show's so funny!

- Really? Is it really funny?

- Yeah, you bet!

I've been impaired for 10 years.

I'm using hearing aid behind

my ears to regulate sounds.

But it cannot cover all hearing range.

Its effectiveness is also

depend on physical condition.
